’03 Yiwu Princess
$19.80 – $238.00
The Yiwu Princess tastes as it smells: vanilla and brown sugar sweetness expresses strongly in the broth up front. Sugar coats the mouth with a taste of daisies coming in at the end and in the aftertaste.
Stored in Los Angeles since Aug ’19, ’03 Yiwu Princess has undergone spectacular storage. Four solid years in LA has cleaned up some of the heavier humid notes, transforming from old daisies, library must, and sweet vanilla to a vibrant fresh daisy replete with sweetness. Along with camphor and vanilla undertones that fully express in the outstanding huigan is some bitterness and astringency, reaching into the throat fully balancing the sweetness. Thick and smooth mouthfeel. Crystal clear broth of a chestnut hue. Exhilarating and expansive qi that has been building over time.
Stone-pressed, Yiwu Princess is processed in the old school Yiwu fashion, which may come as a surprise to those familiar with Yiwu’s genteel profile, but lends well to additional years of storage. For experienced tea hands. 357g.
